I play with this Settings

Very interessing. Espacially with the Gas and fire arrows I had the same in many Missions. But everytime I thought like "nevermind". Maybye because I never played a Version before 2.11. But with the comparrision to like Thief it is frustrating to fire arrows and nothing happens. It really seems to be a bug.

Installed the fresnel mod. Looks good

I think 8x is enough. Togehter with the activated reshade Settings i like the visuals quality a lot. Only picture frames on the Walls or similar Things Look better with 16x AA compared to 8x. @HMartlike I said: I could not see a big difference between stencil and maps, so I Stick to stencil. That worth about 100W GPU Power i the worst Case I have Seen yesterday oO @nbohr1more Looked At Fresnel. Tha should be the next cool addition. After patching TDM it must be redone, right? Patching TDM is another Point. I think a simple file copy of the DIR will work for a Backup?

Yes. The other settings did not change a lot. Changing from stencil top map on the shadow settings resulted in more GPU load, but visually no difference for me. I played one level (pearls and swine) yesterday with AA to 8x and with Reshade activated, that was pretty fine. In the mansion there are a few light sources and performance was still good.

@nbohr1more@HMart I tried all settings. It did not change much. Only the AA set to 8x resulted in siginificant less load. But I tried one other thing. Through exzessive Skyrim modding I have some experience with Reshade. I just downloaded it and activated a few default effects without an extra profile. Its a quiet good topping. I think I like the HDR effect. One example (I had to cut the pictures because of the size) WITH HDR through Reshade Without Or: WITH WITHOUT

A one more Thing: Console should be "^" I am a german krauter, normaly Its that key.

Thank you very much. I will try out your both suggestions this eve. I am aware of the old engine, But still suprised how much load it takes

@nbohr1more Thank you. It is version 2.11 The wiki side I already have seen. I will try your parameters this evening, all through console ? jobs_numThreads 4 tdm_lg_interleave 3 tdm_lg_interleave_min 6 Regarding your other questions: Which missions? --> The Thomas Porter Series and "To catch a thief". There I have the most drops / stutter What OS version? --> Windows 11 What is AA set to ? ( 16x MSAA is still really expensive in this engine so we recommend using 8x or forcing AA in your drivers ) --> Youre right. Of cause I used the maximum, 16x. I will consider reducing this after trieing out the parameters you mentioned. I must be something about the engine, right ? Becuase: raw performance should be there, in my system

Hello togehter, I am just wondering. I got a PC with good specs (Ryzen 5700X, 32GB DDR4-3800 and RTX4090) but in some missions with many light sources I have high GPU utilization or even drops below 60fps. CPU util is low. My Monitor is an ultrawide wth 5120x1440 @ 60hz, FPS capped to 60fps. Is there a trick ?

Great mission. Great atmosphere. Played it yesterday...instead of jumping through of objektives it forced me to scrath for ervery single penny to get the loot togehter. I found two secrets, especially the thief like one But there are still 8 secrets to go...but before I continue the series I think. But where is the secret cage/safe ?!
